Joule Electra LA-150SE - Upgrades Available for Your LA-150MKII!

Take a LA-150MKII line stage preamp, sprinkle in a few of the great sound goodies from the Joule-Electra LA-300ME Marianne Electra Memorial Preamp (yes, I know that's a mouth full to say... we'll just call it the LA-300ME from here on out), and you get a LA-150SE! So you LA-150MKII owners don't feel left out, you can also upgrade your existing preamp for the difference in retail price off the two models ($1,250)! Watcha get for your hard earned dollars???
